Borderlands 4 is just around the corner, promising more looter shooter shenanigans than ever before with its seamless open world design and exciting new traversal methods. There’s a ton to look forward to when the game lands on September 12, and it’s certain to keep you busy for many months beyond. But what if your friends are picking the game up on a platform you don’t have? And what if you want to carry your saves between different ecosystems? We’ve got the answers about Borderlands 4’s cross-play and cross-progression below.
Does Borderlands 4 have cross-play?
If you have friends playing on different platforms, we’ve got some good news for you. Borderlands 4 supports cross-play functionality across every platform, letting you team up with any of your pals for some lootin’ and shootin’.
Before you can begin playing with anyone on another platform, however, you’ll need to sign up for a SHiFT account. This is a “Gearbox account,” for all intents and purposes. Without one, you’ll be limited to playing with players who own the game on your platform.
